If they were shellfish from the sea the further away from the coast the more reason I have to avoid them !

It's legal till the electoral college decide, IMO.
Why are some on here so concerned about his court cases if he hasn't any evidence? Perhaps they fear that he still has the real deal to produce in the nick of time, and Biden's term gets snatched away?
I think the real fear now is that Trump is hoping an "interpretation" by the SCOTUS will save his backside. The attempts of no evidence appeals have past already.

Over the course of preparations and the start of early voting the number of legal challenges is astounding.
Many seem to have been to contravene genuine attempts to ensure as much safety and voting rights as possible due to concerns about Covid-19.
IMO attempted voter suppression. It failed.
If this last attempt put to the SCOTUS is given any credence then IMHO the people of the USA can bid the concept of genuine democratic principle goodbye.

From my experience riding a bike on a road like this is that it is as likely due to avoiding an oncoming vehicle passing another blind as it is any fault of the motorcyclist ! A Honda 150 CBR is no quicker than a Sonic if speed was a factor.

Perhaps there is some unknown news of contracts involving components for EV production ?

So what happened to the previous conclusions of medical examinations showed evidence of pesticide poisoning due to inadequate ventilation following fumigation of the building?
Yet the development of sonic devices has been around quite while. There is the UK one used commonly around shopping centers to deter young teenagers from "loitering" by emitting an annoying sound only they can hear.The US has developed "weapon" grade devices as well as similar things to the UK.
Focussed subliminal sound generators are hardly a technology that only the " bad guys" will have.
Small ones designed to deter dogs actually seem to work .
My apologies to the Scots but bagpipes do it for me !

It would be extremely interesting to know how a fire started in such a silo !
In pellet form and inside a silo it would take more than a cigarette butt to ignite them !
Maybe an electric motor burnout on a feed auger but that would be an extreme chance.

How interesting it is that so many describe how easy it is in terms of rentals etc.
Perhaps would be interesting to know if any have had the experience of an accident and how that went?
It would otherwise seem that rental companies outside of Thailand are little different anywhere inside Thailand when renting such as motorcycles to unlicensed tourists but those Thai business come in for a lashing !
Stupid much !

Nowhere in that link does it say passport and license has to be from the same country. It has the terms "your own country" and "country that issued your license"
It would not make any sense for an expat who has a valid license in country of residence, and then not be allowed to use that in a third country?
"International Driving Permit (IDP) and a valid license from your own country. "
The way that reads is (to me ) is country of national origin, provable by passport.
But up to whoever wants to think otherwise.

Your handle perfectly describes your comment, which is absolute nonsense.
The truth is, any foreign license in English is acceptable for driving in North America. It helps if it's accompanied by an international driving permit (IDP) but isn't absolutely necessary. There are millions of people around the world who possess a license issued by a state they are resident in, but not necessarily a citizen of. It is absurd to suggest that you have to possess a license from a particular country to match your nationality.
Complete misinformation. No country in the world demands that.
Really?

I asked that question a long time back and the answer is that a driving licence or international driving permit is required to be issued from the country of nationality in your passport if and where it is accepted as valid for short term use, and not from a country other than your original nationality. Unless you have dual and Thai passport to match Thai diving licence.

Seems they will be burnt after all
Why not just plough it back into the dirt as natural compost there's no need to burn fuel transporting to be burnt as fuel
Are they obsessed with burning?
My neighbor burns their garden waste I put mine on a compost after 6 months I have great quality black dirt no need to buy dirt.Rice straw is extremely difficult to "plough under" because it is extrmely tough and stringy . It also does not naturally decompose quickly in the dry season.
With the increasing use of machines to harvest IMO an attached chaff cutter on the disharge from such machines would enable it to be ploughed under. A better solution all round.

What a difference an election makes.
Perhaps Barr is too close to the noise?
I believe there will be a lot of dirty laundry yet to discover.

How long before there is news of a State approved enterprise distributing an alternative product?

Several years back a local sugar harvesting contractor was baling the waste after taking the cane and selling large round bales to the sugar mill for similar purpose. His two round balers have sat idle for two years and the local annual black snow falls are back.
While this new scheme sounds good in principle and it is obviously a token measure perhaps it is designed to attract attention to a wider solution ? Unfortunately the traditional quick "accidental" fire solution with endure regardless if there is no enforcement of laws prohibiting it.

Such a shame the upcoming availability and distribution will probably suffer as much interference by Trump and Co. as they can inflict as retribution. I doubt the US will have a Merry Christmas this year!

I see someone has indicated a "sad" response to my initial comment.
I am also sad but not surprised because it perhaps represents a core problem with society in general.
The world is currently in the grip of a situation that regardless of belief in the cause , opinions over reaction to it, opinions about vaccines ..pro or anti..the base reality is it is an event that has disrupted the world.
If the way forward is any Vaccine which for better or worse, good or bad, works or not, allows a resumption in a degree of normality of international flexibility I welcome that.
I do have reservations about those who are adamantly "anti " vaccines but IMO that belongs in a separate point of debate to my opinion in this topic.
My sadness is that I suspect there are those that would care less about effectiveness of a vaccine than would care more about the "profitability "of one that is presented even when developed with public (taxpayer)
subsidies and massive reductions in regulatory requirements on the the basis of "emergency" need due to "investment" expectations!
I have an associate who is "anti vaccine" but who has made a point of buying shares in several of the high profile developers of covid-19 vaccines. He does not appreciate my opinion that he desires potential profit while denying an outcome that arguably could save his own longer life.
I get silence when I ask such if they would reject the MMR program that has ensured their viability thus far !

It may be that while the picture that illustrates the problem has possibly been selective in an attempt to apportion blame to elsewhere in Asia the truth is that the people of the entire region do not generally and collectively recognize the problem. Not personally nor officially in meaningful terms.
Yet while the visual impact of the evidence of the accumulation of material waste in the oceans is significant it provides no comprehension of the invisible chemical wastes that pour in from almost all corners of the modern world.
The sad fact is that while plastic waste has an impact on the oceanic environment it is the poisoning of the dwindling marine resources humans extract that few are made properly aware of that need be!
The heavy metal content of fish is already to a point where responsible health advisories suggest limiting consumption of what should be a source of good protein.
Those wonderful considerate nations that so responsibly remove consumer waste products and secrete them in some obscure location do not admit nor prevent the leachates of many metallic and poisonous compounds into water tables and eventually the oceans.
There seems to be some ironical humor in the fat we can get so indignant about visual evidences of pollution but are less encouraged or willing to consider the pollution aspect created or disposed of in the manufacturing of that evidence. Or the cynical deliberate practice of using developing countries to manufacture on behalf of other in avoidance of regulatory requirements.
THAI delays relaunch of domestic flights until Jan 1 after new cases found
in Thailand News
Posted
All things considered it strikes me as a sensible delay. The domestic market is already well serviced and for TG to go into a costly restart in a competitive market which may yet become restricted if the current C-19 situation unfortunately expands would not be clever business.
